Combat Couple

Gemma Arterton and Andrew Garfield will star in  Michael Mann's biopic about combat photographer Robert Capa says Total Film.



Based on Susana Fortes' award-winning novel, "Waiting for Robert Capa", the story follows the relationship between Gerta Pohorylle a young German woman  and a young Hungarian man named Endre Friedmann who met in Paris in 1935.

As exiled Jewish communist photographers, they decided to change their names to sell their works, and headed to Spain to capture images of the Civil War happening at that time

Arterton added that she hopes to get to work with Michael Winterbottom on his next picture "London Fields" as well

With high profile roles in Clash of the Titans and Prince of Persia for Atherton--and The Social Network and the Untitled Spider-Man Reboot for Andrew--this will be interesting to see what develops as a pro like Mann calls action
